By clicking on a chat link inside Telegram app it redirects me to my default browser (everything fine here). The thing is when the browser opens it logins to my telegram account automatically, why is this happening?

I have TFA and it doesn't ask me for that, there are no devices connected but when opening the browser it logins automatically, even in incognito with no cookies. Does someone know what is happening?

Copy the url, then try stopping the telegram app. See if incognito still detects the app. I know discord web on PC will detect a running discord app by connecting to a local listening port. Not sure if that's possible on mobile but if you terminate the app it should prevent that.
